It’s hard to describe what it is about Australia that I love so much, but I think it is summed up for me in this quote from an official, happily published in a major Sydney newspaper.
“To be quite frank, I think the problem is everybody is arse-covering,” Mr Murphy said.
I have a lot of problems with the rest of the article, but bless you Mr Murphy. You made my day.

You’re just covering your arse.
